Alaskan adventurer & Dog Friend

Pet care experience

All dogs are my best buds; from tiny chihuahuas to humongous Alaskan malamutes. I have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was ten years old. I grew up on a homestead in Alaska and was the designated dog sitter since before I could drive! I have four dogs in my life! Cooper is a Tibetan terrier poodle mix who hikes mountains with me. Millie is a two year old cavapoo who loves to fetch. Sage and Hercules are cousin yellow and chocolate labs who are polar opposites. Hercules is a classic bird hunting dog who could play fetch endlessly. Sage sleeps on the couch and likes to be pet. All my dogs are well behaved and full of personality. I have also helped raise eight puppies from birth. Millie had eight healthy pups that I helped raise and care for until they found forever families.

Riley is just amazing. She watched our pets and took care of our home for 10 days and did an absolutely perfect job. Her communication was excellent and her genuine care and kindness was fantastic. You cannot go wrong with Riley. She left our home spotless and we could enjoy our time away knowing our pets were in such good hands. Thanks, Riley!

Riley is wonderful. She fell in love with our pup and gave us updates each day. She was responsible and organize and very communicative. We would totally recommend her services.

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs listen and respond to me very well! I promise to always look out for your dog and follow all instructions regarding safety. I learn very quickly! In additional to experience as a pet sitter, I was also hired as a personal cleaner for five years. I guarantee your home will be left cleaner than when I arrived!

Information Riley A. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has special needs, let me know! I am very easily adaptable and learn very quickly. I have a stellar memory and will remember the little details you tell me about your dog. I also have experience with highly reactive dogs and can navigate that with ease.

A typical day

I am an avid hiker! I’m from Alaska, so I frequently take my dogs hiking up mountains and explore. I would love to take your dogs on leashed walks outside or play in the backyard. Watershed Park and the Bridle Trails are excellent local spots for dog walking!

I am a student at the UAA Doctor of Pharmacy program. That means I’m in class anywhere from 3 to 7 hours a day but then am otherwise at home studying. This leaves lots of time to hangout with your pet!
